The students should be reading a biograpghy for their March book report. On Wednesday, they will need to present the information in a creative way- trifold board, monologue, power point, newspaper, etc. It should show that they read the book and learned something about the person. The dead line has been extended to the 31st, because families have expressed concern and the month has been a little interrupted. Looking forward to hearing about all the famous people!
